I have been unable to tether in CM7 natively since the new kernel was implemented back around nightly #27ish (before they were reset back to #1)

I could tether before that and can tether now but only with easytether app or pdanet but I would like for the one already in CM to function properly.

I'll attach a screenshot of the error i keep getting. I have read some other people have the same issue and have not found any info about this being fixed or a workaround.

I have tried so many different drivers and none work.
[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
The worst part is they are mostly just arguing semantics :rolleyes:.

I had to do it twice myself the first time it didn't work :(. Also the second time I had GPS on when I did the clr, not really sure it matters though...
[EVO 4G General] defjef123:
Mine is also a little buggy. Hope they clear this up by the next release. Definitely a deal breaker for me
[EVO 4G General] spanglmd:
Flashed back, did it twice, it is now working again in Fresh and CM7 #11. Not sure why have to do it twice, but seems to be working now. Seems like a pretty strange bug to me though.

Has to be a solution to this in the long run. Not too concerned about it though as it is a nightly.
[EVO 4G General] hurricane350:
My gps is no longer tracking with nightly 11 ... When I bring up Maps, it locks then never follows .The gps symbol is very flaky in the status bar as well

My history: been on CM 7 since full 0 (not 1) and had gps issues since coming from Azreal. I finally fixed it doing the gps clear fix when everyone was doing it. (it was the cool thing to do!) Gps worked and tracked all the way till nightly 8. I flashed every nightly except 2 of them... Something is up with 11... I guess I'll nandroid and flash a sense rom later tonight :-(
[EVO 4G General] #Winning#:
Hopefully no one will consider this trolling given the past few pages lol.... But has anyone noticed alot better battery life with the stock kernel on nightly 11, or is this due to me updating my prl? I can't imagine my prl would make a difference but I have been off the charger for a few hours, few texts here and there with a couple checks of facebook at im at 97%!
[EVO 4G General] SolsticeZero:
Try doing the GPSCLRX twice in a row. That seems to do it for some people for some reason.
[EVO 4G General] marc.ientilucci:
Okay I still haven't gotten an answer. I know a few other people are having issues with gtalk as well.. I'm not getting all IMs sent to me and its very frustrating. I have to constantly sign out and in for them to appear. Also I tried to start group chat and it FC on me. Bother nightly 9 and 11

Is there a fix or another version of gapps that can b used as a work around?
[EVO 4G General] RichTJ99:
Im not technical enough to do something like this (what I have in mind) but is there a way to put a shortcut to this as a script? Sort of like a batch file you could keep on the desktop?
[EVO 4G General] Circaflex:
while this does work it still wont solve my problem. This icon shows up everytime i get a new text but it isnt the normal text notification, its what looks to be a small envelope and the more text i get it will have a red number on there saying how many.

When using this icon and reading the message the notification still wont go away.

I have tried:

unblocking vm txt and that didnt solve it

fully wiped and went with nightly #11 still get it

tried wiping cache only and thinking that would work as suggested and turned off notifications

Uninstalled chompSMS still there

fully wiped and did not install chomp still there
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
Sorry about that; I had turned wifi on afterwards to redownload "screenshot" (seems I didn't make a backup last time).

The GPS lock had taken place a good two minutes before any wifi was enabled.

GoogNav also works, which is contrary to quite a lot of people's encounters, apparently.

Do you happen to have ADW Notifier or Google Voice installed?
[EVO 4G General] blu3poptart:
Hey guys, I'm running nightly 11 and I love it! I just have a few questions..I notice that a few minutes after boot that media and gallery were under the battery usage without me opening them. Is this normal? Also, I put my phone on airplane mode to conserve battery and when I turn it back on, I usually have some texts and they all have the same time (time I turn off airplane mode). Does the setting in the default messaging app for using the original time stamp fix this?

Thanks guys
[EVO 4G General] kevinsalterego:
I understand Matt's frustration. And I also realize the CM devs are talented, hard working individuals doing the best they can for our benefit.

However, if someone reports a bug that your pretty little EVO is NOT experiencing, it does not necessarily mean the bug doesn't exist...and it is not your divinely ordained responsibility to protect the dev's feelings by screaming "ZOMG USER ERR0R!!11!, U DUN'T PPRECIATE WUT DEVZ DO!!" Likewise, it's possible that only a minority of us are experiencing it.

Moral of the cool story bro - if your EVO works flawlessly with CM7, either keep your mouth shut and count your blessings, or simply state your phone's hardware revision, kernel and any other pertinent information and that you are not experiencing the issue.

0003, CM7 default kernel, Sense-GPS-Fix didn't work for me, GPS works fine in Sprint roms and CM6.

My only issue was with Tbird whatshisface insulting another member (thedarksavant) by calling him "dense" for claiming (correctly) that GPS was not yet fixed. I didn't think that was called for, especially considering the darksavant was right.
[EVO 4G General] Snake-Driver:
Just fired up 4g and wireless tether using my iPad. Worked fine but I thought the icon turned green when a device was connected and you could view the connected device. I had no indication that it was connected. Am I wrong?
[EVO 4G General] thedarksavant:
Why does it work in CM 6.1.2?
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
I used dense for a reason. What was being asked has been answered a billino times in this thread and countless others in the Evo Forum. All it takes is SEARCHING. its simple and he wasnt right:D

but spread the misinformation all you guys want. its you and everyone else who doesnt know better thatyour hurting. not the guys who actually know whats going on.

Ill be the better person from this point going forward and stop the BS to get back on topic. Feel free to take the thread more off topic if you wish as you wont get another response regarding this from me.

The indicator turns green (or blue, theme dependent) when the service is accessing Google. Otherwise it changes between shades of gray.. apparently.

Ok. Did something stupid. I upgraded the Gallery App which obviously was for a different phone because it didn't work. So when I uninstalled it the Gallery App in the App Drawer is now named "False". How can I change the name back to Gallery?
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
I did soemthing similar once. I resorted to reflashing the rom without clearing any caches. it was my only way to do it but perhaps someone else has a suggestion thats better
[EVO 4G General] m4rk0358:
You're right. That is the fix for this particular issue. :D
[EVO 4G General] Snake-Driver:
That didn't work. Flashed many nightlies without clearing cache/dalvik cache to no avail. I can change the name on the desktop but not in the App Drawer. Not that big of a deal but just bugs the s#!t out of me!!
[EVO 4G General] 94tbird:
Really? Did you try wiping the cache and davlik as well? I mean worst case scenario is a full wipe and reflash from scratch
[EVO 4G General] thedarksavant:
I was not asking a question about GPS. If I didn't know the work around or what I was talking about, I could not have written the post you freaked out on. Someone was making a list of things that did not work, so I added GPS. It doesn't work when you flash CM7. It's on the OP. I felt it should be in a list of things that are not working for everybody.

At least this tirade thread brought out that the devs know about the issue and are working on it. I have not seen any GPS related commits lately, so I wasn't sure if they were (though I assumed they would not let CM7 go final with that gawd awful work around).

More on topic, I've seen a few posts about download problems, and even posted one myself (I added it to the list mentioned above). Is it a known issue that is being worked on or more sporadic. I can usually reproduce it by trying to send a link to a file via chrome2phone, but I can also see it when I just try to download from the default browser. Sometimes it gets to 99% then fails, sometimes it just sits for a while at 0% then fails. Probably not at the top of the list since the workaround is to use Dolphin or Opera to download files. Or is that the FIX? (jk)
[EVO 4G General] Snake-Driver:
Roger. Got it. Avoiding the full wipe until i have major problems or another RC comes out. I can deal with it. It works. Just annoying!!
[EVO 4G General] thedarksavant:
Clear ADW cache from settings?
[EVO 4G General] Snake-Driver:
Nope. Didn't work.
[EVO 4G General] FL0OD:
Is there a moderator that can tidy up this thread?
[EVO 4G General] thedarksavant:
GPS Fixed?

OK, just to hammer the final nail in the GPS is fixed/not fixed argument I present to you Bug# 2090: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmo...on Model Network Owner Summary Stars Priority

GPS takes a long time to lock if at all.

Status: ShouldBeFixed

Which to me implies not fixed since one wouldn't set the status on something as ShouldBeFixed when it was already fixed. That'd be like ordering a guard to guard a guard.

It's listed against the Vision, but seems to have migrated to include several devices including the Supersonic.

The horse is dead! Long live the horse!

Edit: I really need to learn to let these things go.

Edit2: Another thing I gleaned from reading the bug report was that it's sporadic, so if you just tried GPS or navigation once, it may have worked but you might still have the bug. It did work fine for me the first two times, but hasn't since.

Lol... yeah no need. You left skid marks all over this thread like a 1994 t-bird on my lawn.

Good read though. Oh and as a dev... cm7 broke my gps, although the sense fix worked. You are misinformed if you think cm7 wasn't at play. But see, I don't give a **** cuz this rom is still dope as hell, and not final yet.

[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
Or don't use either :). Rom Mang is great for people just getting into flashing/backing up, but at some point it pays to do everything manually from recovery...much more control ;).
[EVO 4G General] #Winning#:
Anyone else happen to notice on nightly 11 that the kernel version under settings says 2.637.1 and not 2.637.2? Maybe I am misinformed but I thought that this nightly included .2 stuff?
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
For the last few hours I've been seeing people bickering back and forth about the GPS. My case may be exceptional, but when I first flashed CM7 I could get a GPS lock with absolutely no problem. My problem was it would lock, work for maybe 30 seconds, then lose signal for about a minute, lock back on for 30 seconds, and so on. I never knew about the Sense GPS fix until nightly 4 came out, I tried it and still had the same lock 30, lose 60. Before I flashed N6 I did the Sense workaround... and since then GPS is smooth as butter. But I reiterate, CM7 did not totally break my GPS, it just didn't work right.
[EVO 4G General] FusionX:
That is exactly the problem.... by break we mean it didn't work as it had previously... as you applied the fix, things work like that should again.. no one said that gps caught on fire and ran away. Just that it was broken as compared to normal. :-) thanks for confirming the issue!

This ROM is "dope as hell." I love CM. Like I said, I was just adding to a list of things that don't work right. Since it's already on the OP, I should have left it alone. I didn't realize I was going to get reamed just for adding something to a list of known issues. Sheesh.

And I think there is an important distinction here. For Foursquare and local weather, GPS seems to work fine. Try to navigate somewhere and soon you'll get the dreaded "GPS signal lost." So checking to see if you have the bug requires more than just looking in Maps at how big your blue circle is. You have to set a destination and try to navigate there.

Hell, it could be a GB maps/navigation issue. GPS Status seems to lock in just fine, but I've had 11 satellites in GPS Status and still had Maps "Searching for GPS."

Hell at this moment Maps claims accuracy within 20 meters, but if I hop in the car and navigate somewhere, I'll lose lock before the first turn.

*MMV.

To everyone:

Not everyone is stumbling through these issues or hurdles, and there are a plethora of variables that we can associate with it (the largest two being, of course, location and terra obstacles).

Myself and others can attest to working GoogNav and decent and/or steady tracking, but we need to make sure we are supportive and understanding of someone else's troubles.

Let's just make sure we report issues and their status on our personal devices so we can help with development instead of this ballbusting attitude.
